BLACK HORSE INN

INCHICORE THE BLACK HORSE INN

Today I visited the Inchicore area of Dublin and I used a 14mm wide-angle lens so you may notice some distortion

The Black Horse Inn (Kelly's) was located on the banks of the Grand Canal in Inchicore beside the Black Horse Luas Tram stop [named after the pub not the other war around].

In December 2018 the owner of the Black Horse applied for planning permission to build a block of apartments. The proposal consisted of the demolition of the former public house and an adjoining pair of semi-detached houses at numbers 229 and 231 Tyrconnell Road.

In June 2011 RTE reported that a man had been killed and another had been injured in a shooting at the Black Horse Inn in the early hours of the morning. The shooting was carried out by a lone gunman who fled the scene on foot but fired more shots in the direction of the pub as he left. It was also reported that about an hour prior to the fatal shooting, two armed men entered the same pub. At the time it was believed that the killing was in retaliation for the murder of a youth on the banks of the Grand Canal three years earlier.
